Tom & His Free Mockingbirds have always been a band that pushes the boundaries of genre, often weaving Blues and Folk Rock into their sound.

Their latest single, “To Love A MockingJay,” is a testament to Tom’s songwriting prowess and the band’s musical evolution. Drawing inspiration from the legendary Bob Dylan, Tom crafts a poignant folk rock narrative that resonates deeply.

The song’s protagonist is a struggling songwriter and busker, who, amidst the trials of his itinerant life, yearns for a soulmate. By a twist of fate, he encounters a kindred spirit—a MockingJay. This enigmatic figure, a “Rolling-Rebel,” shares his love for books and carries the scars of past relationships, vowing never to love again.

In this three-minute story, the protagonist acknowledges the impossibility of winning her over but chooses to immortalize their brief connection through song. “To Love A MockingJay” is his heartfelt ode to perseverance and unrequited love, showcasing Tom & His Free Mockingbirds’ ability to blend heartfelt lyrics with captivating melodies.
